Asked by Doris

Explain to me about a thesis with compelling arguments and counterarguments? Doing a Project on Breast Cancer. Choose to do What is Breast Cancer. Would this be a good topic? Help please. Or some suggestions.
Answered by bobpursley
What substantive arguments or counterarguments are you considering? To treat or not treat?
Answered by Ms. Sue
Your topic, "What is breast cancer?" is not a good topic for finding arguments and counterarguments. You only need facts to answer this question.

A thesis that you need to argue needs to be an opinion statement, not a question. Do any of these thesis statements appeal to you?

* The death penalty should be abolished throughout the United States.

* The Supreme Court should overturn Roe vs. Wade.

* The United States should adopt a universal health care plan with all costs paid by federal taxes on everyone.

* Barack Obama (or John McClain) should be elected president of the United States.

What do you want to say about breast cancer?
Answered by Doris
Stated this wrong. Topic is on Cancer. Doing assignment on Breast Cancer. Should I not tell what it is. What are some of the causes, the statics, treatments, etc. Trying to figure out a thesis topic
Answered by Ms. Sue
You're writing an expository essay, which doesn't have arguments and counterarguments.

Your thesis statement could be: Breast cancer is a cancer that forms in the breasts of both women and men.

Then -- your supporting paragraphs will tell about the statistics, causes, treatments, etc.
